Sounds great, and yes, very Vespertine in a way.
I love that Icelandic nature, you can see how that has inspired her music. Did not like the melody of the lyrics though, reminded me of Heirloom.

LOVED the music! Reminds me of Noriyuki Iwadare's works! I hope the sound of the album is as unique as that. Each of her albums, whether you love it or hate it has a very distinct theme and sound and that is what I love about Bjork. None of that "going back to my roots" and "going full circle by returning to my old sound" rubbish.

EXTREMELY epic I believe! Michel Gondry was responsible for the one of the best music videos of all time; Bjork's Bachelorette. 8-)

:D :lol: :D :) :P I also love her for this word, although it gets somewhat whashed out when she sings it. Spaaa-haaarkl instead of our beloved Sparrrkl.

She hit a new level with "I wanted to brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreak out".

And, don't miss "thhhhundrrrrrs" in part 6.

The guy on the keyboard did such an amazing job! :o The song sounded brilliant at first, but it became too much of a world music thing when they brought in the Middle-eastern instruments and the sheikh.

I really like this Middle East rhythm and melody but I'll stay sceptic until someone trustworthy translates the lyrics. :lol:
